  • Look, someone has misrepresented America, and Americans to you. You have to be in VERY specific places for the type of interactions that you are describing.

    Very many places in America, nobody wants to talk to you, greet you, look at you, or have you smile in their direction.

    What you are describing is “Small town vibe” where you in fact usually have to be a part of the small town before people will start treating you the way you have described.

    People in America have social anxiety as well.

    If your desire is to be good at interpersonal relations, then you need to practice exactly that. If your fellow Germans aren’t up to the task, then I suggest finding some alternative to Omegle (since I think that got shut down?) and try to small talk with strangers over a webcam if you can.
